The God of Wealth: Her Top Game of Thrones

Chapter 1221 A gentleman ignores his conduct and his heart

Even Tang Tang couldn't help but feel a subtle joy welling up inside her.

No one dislikes being recognized, especially when the recipient is a great and respected older person of the same sex.

The ring in Tang Tang's hand had just been wiped clean by Duchess Ella, leaving no dirt behind, only the huge sapphire on the ring setting shining brightly.

Queen Elizabeth looked at the ring, her voice tinged with a wistful reminiscence, "It came from my beloved husband, the Grand Duke of Iskes."

Seemingly sensing that Tang Tang was about to decline, Queen Elizabeth slowly shook her head, then smiled gently and said, "Accept it, Nikolayta. I also gave Kelly a similar ring."

Her voice held a profound and loving tenderness, as if at this moment, in her eyes, both Nicola and Kelly were merely her beloved juniors.

Perhaps that is indeed the case. After all, when one's status and experience reach that of Queen Elizabeth, it seems that other worldly constraints no longer matter to her.

"Pretty little girls deserve pretty gifts, right?"

Queen Elizabeth winked at Tang Tang, "Next time you come, you can wear it. Kelly's ring is an emerald. Both rings are from the same master jeweler."

Having said all that, there was no point in Tang Tang refusing any longer. She sat opposite Queen Elizabeth, her posture upright, head held high and back straight, like a delicate daffodil.

Tang Tang looked at Queen Elizabeth earnestly, "I will... Thank you, Your Majesty, I also like Kelly very much."

“Kelly likes you very much too,” Queen Elizabeth said with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. “I like you very much too. You are a wonderful girl who will surprise everyone who comes into contact with you.”

"It's my pleasure," Tang Tang said with a slight smile, picking up the bone china teacup that Duchess Ella had placed beside her and taking a sip of warm black tea.

Queen Elizabeth's gaze was deep and gentle as she looked at Tang Tang, inevitably recalling the past, even though the first half of those years wasn't very pleasant.

The ring given to Tang Tang came from her last husband. She had three husbands and seven or eight lovers in her life.

Some of these choices were made out of necessity, while others were driven by political considerations. Only her last husband was someone she truly loved after she had completely taken control of the British Quarter.

Unfortunately, the Grand Duke of Iskes was in poor health and passed away five years after marrying the Queen.

Kelly's mother was the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth and the Grand Duke of Iskes.

Kelly was her most beloved grandchild and her chosen successor as queen. But she was too naive; Queen Elizabeth worried that Kelly would be seduced by love or other external forces as she grew up.

Until Tang Tang appeared.

Although Tang Tang never publicly revealed her relationships, she never hid the men behind her.

When Queen Elizabeth learned that Tang Tang had many lovers but none of them were publicly acknowledged... Her Majesty was quite certain that this girl, who was as young as Kelly, clearly had strong ambition and self-control.

She clearly understands what is more important to her, which is good and precious.

Queen Elizabeth hoped that Kelly could learn something from Tang Tang as a friend.

After all, Kelly has always been clueless when it comes to relationships... Queen Elizabeth is worried that she might stumble and fall one day once she does.

After discussing Kelly's matter, Queen Elizabeth's expression became more serious as she looked at Tang Tang and said, "Kelly told me about the anti-cancer drug that your laboratory is about to launch."

Indeed, this was the real reason why Queen Elizabeth treated Tang Tang differently.

Tang Tang nodded confidently and said sincerely, "Regarding the first-generation anti-cancer drug, my laboratory has already reached a cooperation agreement with the Chinese government."

China's efficiency is quite high. Trial samples of the first-generation anti-cancer drug have already entered trials in major laboratories across China, and relevant Chinese departments have approved various issues such as trademarks, sales channels, and medical insurance.

That's right, medical insurance.

Tang Tang offered certain concessions to the Chinese government… making the price significantly lower than in other countries. China also directly included this first-generation anti-cancer drug in its medical insurance system, and after various reductions and exemptions, the price of this anti-cancer drug successfully became relatively equal to that of other anti-cancer drugs in China.

A box of medicine might cost a few tens of yuan more, but it's already very good.

Major domestic pharmaceutical companies naturally resisted this, and some have even started hiring online trolls to engage in smear campaigns and attempt to spread misinformation.

For example, some people questioned that Tang Tang and her laboratory were not well-known at all, and were practically a makeshift operation, so their so-called anti-cancer drugs must be unreliable.

Some people have also accused Tang Tang's laboratory of academic fraud in its reports and papers, claiming that much of the data in them is unreliable.

Besides, all sorts of shady marketing tactics abound.

Rumors spread that Tang Tang is actually the son of an official or a capitalist, that this anti-cancer drug is completely useless and is just a way to fleece people and make money... and so on.

To be honest, in the past, many emerging brands in the Chinese market were forced to go bankrupt and fail due to this kind of overwhelming black marketing.

But this time is different. Not to mention that Tang Tang owns a film and television company, she can outmaneuver anyone who wants to play the public opinion game.

Most importantly, Tang Tang is backed by the Chinese government. The National Security Bureau and the State Drug Administration have been paying close attention to this special drug. When they discovered signs of online trolls spreading rumors, the Chinese government took decisive action.

When the authorities take action, you know they've got what they're capable of. And this wasn't a small-scale operation; they shut down several online troll companies, located their locations, and brought the culprits in for questioning. Soon, the whole thing was completely over.

It can be said that all that is needed now is for Tang Tang's company to officially hold a press conference, after which the next generation of anti-cancer drugs can be directly put into production and sold in China.

Tang Tang skipped over parts of the confidentiality agreement and said to Queen Elizabeth, "Actually, I already have enough wealth to squander. I would prefer that this anti-cancer drug be truly used for the benefit of the people, rather than becoming an expensive luxury item."

What she wants is to gain global influence, not to amass wealth, nor does she want to exploit patients.

Moreover, even if the anti-cancer drug only costs 1 yuan per box, if cancer patients all over the world spend 1 yuan to buy the drug, it would be enough to make Tang Tang the richest person in the world.

What she wants is influence, something more important than wealth.

A gentleman judges by actions, not intentions. Regardless of Tang Tang's motives, the fact that she was doing good deeds is enough.
